Alegre is inspired by Tulum in Mexico. Between the hand-rendered plaster and white-washed stone walls, warm timber decor and open verandah overlooking the water, the Mexican eatery does a good job of channelling the breezy holiday destination – and there’s a menu to match.

Standout dishes include spice-rubbed charcoal king prawns and burnt lime; eight-hour lamb with barbacoa sauce cooked in a Josper charcoal oven that stays burning around the clock; and a crudo bar serving guajillo chilli-cured kingfish with citrus dressing and a passionfruit scallop ceviche.

Rounding out the holiday experience is a mezcal and tequila bar of 150 options, including Clase Azul Ultra, of which only 100 cases are produced each year, and Corazon’s anejo, which won top spot in the World Tequila Awards 2021.
